The Seven Kingdoms of Westeros’ Iron Crown is the subject of the first major plot arc, which is centred on a complex web of political disputes between the noble families that are either competing for the throne or battling for independence from the current monarch. The last member of the realm’s overthrown royal dynasty, who has been banished to Essos and is preparing to return and regain the throne, is the subject of the second. The third focuses on the Night’s Watch, a military organisation that guards Westeros against dangers coming from outside its northern border.
